Onwards to Volume 100
There's still some confetti left!
We passed the 2-year mark of this show with grace, and the next milestone is already just around the corner. Exciting times are ahead!
But before we get there, let's address this proverbial elephant that's been trampling over the price charts lately. Some of you might already have noticed that liquid post-rewards are being paid as a mix of SBD and STEEM again. That's the built-in mechanism with which this blockchain tries to control the debt/equity ratio of our steem-backed-dollars on this chain.
We've been around for a while, so this isn't the first time this happens and our googly prize-pool is perfectly able to handle these inconsistencies. For the winners, this just means a little less liquid SBD and a lot more STEEM-power-ups to their prizes.
And if you think about it, that's actually a good thing... and even if you're not a winner today, consider this: The bear market is the perfect time to accumulate some stake!!
ย

Need more details and numbers about the Prize-Pool? There's a whole spreadheet for you!
I haven't fully integrated the PAL bookkeeping in there, yet. You'll find it way off to the right: column BF.
As usual, some friends and family got together on the Planet Googly discord to pick their three favorite posts among all qualifying entries. It was a close call again and today I had to pick my three favs, too, in order to get a valid result.
the qualifying posts were submitted by:
@phoenixwren, @marpa, @debo-medstudent, @mandysp,
@steemean, @drakernoise and @marblely
today's guest judges were:
@anouk.nox, @bucipuci, @drakernoise, @fraenk, @jamethiel, @krystle, @madlenfox,
@mandysp, @mathowl, @sparkesy43, @steemseph and @wesphilbin
guest judges can never vote for their own entries
ย
drumroll please...
๐ฅ HERE ARE THE WINNERS: ๐ฅ
๐ฅ Today's 3rd winner is: ๐ฅ
@marblely with
"My floaty puppy googlyeyes..."
So @marblely really likes keeping fit while doing the dishes, and she seems to have frequent bubbly training partners, too. You've gotta see that happy smile this puppy puts on when the deeds is done... brilliant shiny teeth!
ย
ย
๐ฅ The 2nd winner is: ๐ฅ
@marpa with
"El brillo de la zanahoria"
I'm so glad @marpa is back on the #GooglyEyes tag. She's continuously taking us on new adventures, and this time it goes way above the clouds and beyond, landing with a solid 2nd prize. Awesome!
ย
ย
๐ฅ And Our Grand Winner is: ๐ฅ
@drakernoise with
"The amazing adventures of โClamsyโ ~ Visit to the lake~ ๐"
Clamsy, who's already been briefly introduced to us not too long ago, went on a crazy adventure, too. Meeting aliens by the lake and just generally goofing around, like Clamsy does. No animals were harmed in this production, in fact, as I've learned, quite the opposite happened!
ย
ย
aaaaand
another drumroll, please
๐ฅ the Googly-Delegation-Winners are: ๐ฅ
@drakernoise, @marpa and @marblely
you will receive delegations of
207.558, 124.535 and 83.023 SP
for at least 9 days.
All our winners have roughly the same voting stake and none of them is engaged in shady self-voting or things like that, so they all qualify for a share of this week's delegation pool. We're doing the classic 50/30/20 split according to the winner ranking.

everything is better with #GooglyEyes
I was about to finish my daily piano lesson when a Discord notification came out on the screen, the googlePrize was out and hot but I couldnโt imagine it was so hot!
I voted on the Googlyeyes Discord Server and I donโt know what you think but it was a hard task to choose only 3 out of the entries, so nice and cute posts they all are!
As Always I like to send my thanks to all the patrons: @krystle, @ausbitbank, @reggaemuffin and @drakos and sponsors @suesa.
Special thanks to @drakos for saving a great googlyeyes post (https://steemit.com/ophumanangels/@phoenixwren/op-with-me-in-denver-yahntxgy) from a stupid flag. I told stupid because there are plenty of means to talk and solve problems appart from flagging. Itโs my humble opinion.
What to say about @fraenkโs hard and cute work thatโs not already been said, the spirit of the whole googlyeyes world!
Iโm blushing cos of my winning, totally unexpected to me, Iโm touched and will give you all crazy hugs and thanks if we where physically close ๐คฃ
Finally I would thank all of you that made an entry and those that couldnโt by any reason but had it on their mind.
Keep on looking this crazy world with different funny and lovely eyes ๐ ... and donโt forget to put it a nice music background!
Much love and hugs to all โค๏ธ
Yes, thank you SO MUCH @drakos! I was so touched that you ungrayed my post! <3

How great are these winners, and the delegations use them well and see all off you next week !
Thank you, thank you @googlyeyes, judges, sponsors and googly patrons!!! Congrats @drakernoise and @marpa! Googlyeyes ON! :)
p.s. sorry I missed the voting, was in zzz land already.
Great work. Congratulations to all winners. Let's make the world more friendly with GooglesPlanet and #GOOGLYEYES :-)
Great choices. They're fun :)
Congratulations to the winners!
Okay....now I have finally looked at what this is all about I can see the sublimely entertaining nature of it. If only I had some googly eyes I would start immediately. I can think of so many possibilities...
Great work coming up with something so original!
#GooglyEyes really are such a diverse medium... even I am still often surprised at how much is possible with to be told with just some wiggly plastic eyes (or adequate substitutes).
I didn't really come up with it, though... there's something like a small global movement of #googlyeyes and more specifically #eyebombing (which is a bit like street-art when the eyes are placed on inanimate object in a public setting) enthusiasts out there. I really just picked the whole thing up as an occupational therapy to deal with some things in my personal life and then it somehow grew into this niche filled with creative and well-meaning folks here on steem.
I think the combination of cuteness, curiosity and giggles combined with a very accessible format... I mean, really almost anybody can put some eyes on something and it'll probably be entertaining... yeah... I'm actually really proud of what we have here!
Congrats to all the winners! Y'all are so cute. :D
They are cute indeed !!
